[PATCH] gpio: remove spurious gpio_unexport debug error.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Make gpio_unexport generate success instead of an -EINVAL
if asked to unexport a line which is not exported, because
the only result of that condition is a pr_debug
which complains of what is really a harmless no-op:
when an unexported gpio is unexported again, nothing happens.
That's not a failure, just a trivial border case.
Since gpio_free calls gpio_unexport unconditionally
and exported gpio lines are uncommon, most calls to
gpio_free with debug flags enabled generate -EINVAL
warnings in the log, causing unnecessary stress.
